Chapter 4

I got home from the gym around seven that night and walked in through the side door. I could hear my mom and Lynda talking in the living room. I went straight to the back and took a shower; I was a mess. I finished my shower, out some shorts and a t-shirt on and headed to the front room. As soon as Lynda saw me, she did a double take.

“This is little Chris?” she asked, holding one hand over her mouth.

“That’s him sister.” my mom replied.

She got up and ran around the sofa and hugged me tightly pressing her body firmly against mine. Both my mother and Lynda were very similar both beautiful women with amazing figures. She finally let me go and stepped back giving me the once over.

“How long have you been in the gym?” she asked.

“Several years now. I work with weights in the morning and martial arts at night.” I answered.

“My god nephew, you are some kind of fine.” Lynda giggled.

We all sat together in the living room for several hours talking and catching up. Apparently, Lynda and her husband Jack were arguing all the time, so she decided to come and visit Stacey. They both felt that perhaps some time away from each other was what they needed. We were also informed that Jack was not exactly getting it done in the bedroom anymore.

I finally got up and went into my bedroom at eleven that night falling asleep immediately. All during the weekend I kept getting looks from Lynda that honestly made me feel a little uncomfortable. I went outside on Saturday and cut the grass then picked everything up. Just as I was about to go inside, I heard Cassie’s voice.

“Hey Chris ... what’s up?” she shouted from next door.

“Not much Cassie, just finished the yard.” I replied, as she walked over to me.

“Uh, any chance I can go swimming again?” she asked.

“Sure, go ahead. No problem.” I answered.

“Will you come with me?” she asked.

“No sorry, I have a class in about forty-five minutes. I’ll be back around four though if you want to go then.” I offered.

“Sure, that will work.” she responded.

I left shortly thereafter for my class when I spent two hours with Master Garcia. We were beginning to work with training knives that were hard rubber. I would attempt to stab him with the knife, and he would disable me rapidly. Then we would reverse roles and I would attempt to do the same. I found it very interesting and something that may come in useless today.

I left the gym and stopped at the deli to grab a sandwich since I had eaten yet today. I ordered my sandwich and as I waited my high school nightmare walked in together. It was Darren Miller who was now again dating Haley which I couldn’t figure out. Then Mark Boudreaux who dated Chrissy Hanes, Destin Thibodaux who dated Jen Smith and the biggest asshole of all Josh Klein.

Josh played defensive line and was the biggest of the group at about two hundred seventy pounds, Mark Boudreaux was the quarterback who was in love with himself, and Destin Thibodaux was a wide receiver. None of them received any offers to play in college so for some of them their glory years were behind them. Of course, they noticed me right away.

“Hey Roid Boy is here.” Josh laughed.

I ignored him and looked out of the window as I waited for my order. Josh came up and blocked me from leaving the booth and Mark and Destin slid in the booth across from me.

“Hey Chris, how’s it hanging?” Mark asked.

“Just fine Mark, how have you been?” I replied, courteously.

“I’m dating the hottest chick in town, my life is great.” he laughed.

“Glad you’re doing well, Mark.” I answered, once again.

“Hey, we hear you’re some kind of black belt in some bullshit Israeli crap.” Josh laughed.

“No, that’s not true.” I answered.

“That’s what everybody says.” he laughed.

“It’s just something at the gym I do to keep in shape.” I replied, just as my number was called.

I tried to stand but Josh had me blocked in the booth. So, I leaned forward slightly and stood up using my shoulder to push Josh backwards a bit. I was ready for him, but his buddy spoke up quickly.

“Not here Josh, we’ll catch him on the street.’, Mark suggested.

Josh stepped aside and I walked to the counter and paid for my order. I turned to walk out when of course they had to speak up.

“Be seeing you soon Williams”, Josh laughed.

“Looking forward to it.” I replied, walking out of the store.

I knew before everything played out between us, I was going to have to fight one or maybe all of them. I wasn’t afraid of them, but I felt it was just silly that they couldn’t let it go. Here they were high schools graduates still hanging out together playing the same stupid games.

I went home and ate my sandwich then dressed for the pool. Cassie saw me come out through her bedroom window and waved indicating she would be over shortly. My mom and Lynda were not home so we had the place to ourselves.

Cassie came over in an orange bikini this time looking drop dead gorgeous. I still could not figure out why she dressed in all black with loose fitting clothing and hoodies. She set her towel down on the table and jumped into the pool. She popped up in the middle and swam towards me.

“So, what have you been up to?” she asked, brushing the wet hair off her face.

“Not much really. How about you? I replied.

“Just listening to my parents about how I am throwing my life away.” she sighed.

“I’m sure they just want what’s best for you.’, I answered.

“Fuck, I don’t know what’s best for me right now.” she said, raising her voice.

Cassie could go from normal to excited very quickly. She seemed as though she was out of her element, and she resented someone or something.

“I’m always willing to listen Cassie, if that’s what you need.” I offered.

“Oh Chris, you don’t want to be around me if I get started.” she said.

“Just offering...” I responded.

“Chris, my parents don’t understand because I have not told them what really happened at school.” she said softly, looking over her shoulder.

She hesitated for several seconds then it was like somebody opened the flood gates to a dam. She started telling me about her freshman year in college and how she met what she thought was the love of her life. This past holiday season, she and her boyfriend went to a New Year’s Eve party. After some hesitation, she came clean.

Sometime during the party someone put Rohypnol in Cassie’s drink. About an hour later she started feeling weird and asked her boyfriend to take her home. Sometime later she must have passed out. She woke up the following morning on a bench outside in the quad. She staggered back to her room and noticed that her clothing was astray. She tried to contact her boyfriend, but he wouldn’t answer the phone.

Several days later still not able to reach her boyfriend she contacted several people that were at the party. When they began to act strange too, Cassie knew something had happened. The following day she received an email with a video attached.

She opened the attached and began to watch the video on her laptop. It started with Cassie and her boyfriend in bed having sex. Obviously, someone was recording the event. As Cassie admitted, she had sex with her boyfriend before the party in question so that was not a big issue. But as she noticed in the recording, she seemed dazed and very out of it.

After her boyfriend finished the recording stopped momentarily but started up and few seconds later. Now the room was full of people all shouting and laughing. Several young men took turns having sex with her. Several men also stuck their dicks in her mouth and finished off by masturbating and cumming on her.

Cassie stated that she remembered none of that night happening and still to this day cannot recall a thing. Once she finally cornered her boyfriend, he admitted that he allowed his friend to tape their encounter. He admitted things got out of hand later and regretted not stopping it. According to Cassie, she punched him in the face and walked out on him.

She tried to resume school, but the tape made its way all over campus and she was ridiculed daily. She got into several fights on campus and finally decided to come home. She had not revealed to her parents about the tape so they really could not understand what was going on. She admitted that she had been humiliated in front of her friends and could not let the anger inside of her go. She admitted that she loved her boyfriend and they planned to get married after graduating school. How could he have done something so vile to her. By the time she got it all out she was sobbing.

I felt bad for Cassie and put one arm around her trying to console her. She wrapped her arms around me and cried with her head on my shoulder for several minutes before pulling away.

“I’m sorry Chris, I shouldn’t have told you all of that ... It’s really my problem.” she admitted.

“Cassie, you did nothing wrong, and I don’t blame you for being upset.” I replied.

“Then my biggest problem is my boyfriend keeps calling me and wanting to get back together. In a way, I do love him, but I am not sure I can ever forgive him.,”, she said, softly.

“I can’t help you with that, Cassie. That is a huge decision to make, and you must make it alone.” I answered.

“I know ... I’m still trying to get up the nerve to tell my parents what happened.” she responded.

“Yes, that has to be tough.” I said, trying to console her.

“Well, I cried enough today ... If you don’t mind, I’m going home.” she said, swimming away.

She dried off and wrapped the towel around her body and walked away disappearing through the gate. I finished up, dried off and went inside to take a shower. By the time I came out of the bathroom both my mother and Lynda had returned.

“Hey what do you want to eat tonight. It’s just me and you. Your mother has a date.” Lynda stated.

“It doesn’t matter to me. Tell me what you would like, and I’ll go get it.” I answered.

So, my mother had decided to go out on the date after all. If things were not already fucked up between us, well this should make it worse. While I knew my mother had a point about the age difference why did she approach me several months ago at all. Especially now, when she is possibly going to start a relationship with someone. I made a conscious decision immediately to stay out of my mom’s bed.

I made it a point to wait until my mother’s date was about to arrive to go get dinner for Lynda and myself. I went to a local diner who made excellent hamburgers, fries and onion rings. I pulled up in front and went in to make my order. I placed the order and sat at the counter while I waited, drinking a large coke. Not five minutes later, Chrissy Hines and Maggie Miller came in and sat at the counter several stools away.
